Welcome to Paradise

Nuova Sala Paradiso is the historic estate of Peppe Zullo, an Italian chef with a world-wide reputation.

The reception hall is surrounded by greenery, with a beautiful garden looking onto the village of Orsara di Puglia: a charming town recognised for its beauty and culture with the Orange Flag status from the Touring Club and awarded by the Cittaslow brand.

The Paradiso winery, with its underground cellars, is like a miniature village set into the hillside underneath the vineyard. The restaurant and the suites complete the picture, making this the perfect location for ceremonies, weddings and events.

Food is Happiness

Food is happiness, taste and harmony, beauty for the eyes and intense, delicate flavours which remain forever in the heart. Peppe Zullo is the master of an authentic taste, a chef known throughout the world for his extraordinary ability to bring out all the uniqueness and simplicity of wonderful flavours. “From the land to the table”: this is the route taken by the prime raw ingredients grown on Peppe Zullo's estate. The philosophy behind the creation of every dish is “simple food for intelligent people”: simple food made from locally grown ingredients and with respect for seasonal availability, giving these products not only fabulous colours and flavours but also wholesomeness.

The recipe for happiness is created in this simple way, involving all the senses in a harmonious way and looking for beauty in the truest and most authentic things.

The Recipe for

Happiness

A cluster of cherry tomatoes, a handful of fragrant borage leaves, and some tender pumpkin flowers.

Happiness feeds on simplicity, the wonders of living natural ingredients, all within reach and close to your heart.

Reviews

We wanted something different from the usual banquet facilities and we chose the “Paradiso” ...Nuova Sala Paradiso is wonderful because it combines history, style, and the hospitality offered by an exceptional staff and a great chef like Peppe Zullo. We would make the same choice 1000 times over. 1000 thanks to Nuova Sala Paradiso.

Antonietta & Francesco, a couple from Lucera

The winery is absolutely fantastic, the room is welcoming and the gardens and roof terrace are wonderful. Nuova Sala Paradiso was the setting for a wedding where everyone had fun and we all enjoyed a wonderful meal. Thank you Peppe.

Michela & Antonio, a couple from San Severo

We both love Orsara di Puglia, and we fell in love with it by eating at Peppe Zullo's. This is why we got married at Nuova Sala Paradiso. It only takes half an hour to get there but you find yourself in a magical world, full of plants and trees and stone arches, and with a stylish reception room and a splendid cellar. Our wedding was perfect.
